About The Mary Wallopers

The repertoire of this 2010s-formed Irish folk act is steeped in traditional material popularized by the likes of the Dubliners, the Clancy Brothers, and the Chieftains. However, far from treating the folk idiom as unreachable, sacred territory the Dundalk, County Louth-formed group perform with a warts-and-all honesty, reminiscent of Shane MacGowan's punk-injected Pogues. In 2019, they self-released a debut EP, A Mouthful of the Mary Wallopers, produced and mixed by Mícheál Keating of Bleeding Heart Pigeons (he also performs). Their eponymously titled debut full-length charted momentarily in Scotland and Ireland in late 2022, but its 2023 follow-up, Irish Rock 'n' Roll, saw them make their first U.K. chart debut.
